About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 5 874 · spoilt 159 · special votes 571 · All 5 voting districts in (the IEC's voting-district results so far, out of its list of voting districts for this election)
PR ballot figures for this ward are the sum of the IEC's results for its 5 voting districts; the IEC publishes the ward ballot per ward and the PR ballot per voting district.
Turnout is calculated as PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters, from the IEC's results for the 5 voting districts here (5 943 of 11 696). The IEC publishes 51.4%.
The winner's share of registered voters is calculated: the winner's votes on the IEC's ward ballot ÷ the registered voters of the ward's voting districts.
The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2021 election for the same ward (the ward that covered the same area then), both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 31 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 3 763 vs 7 633; PA 610 vs 1 232; EFF 303 vs 596; ANC 255 vs 555; APPEIR 136 vs 275; DM 125 vs 251; NA 120 vs 234; VF PLUS 78 vs 173; GOOD 66 vs 138; ACDP 59 vs 117; UPPA 40 vs 84; ALJAMA 31 vs 56; E.T.M 29 vs 39; DOP 27 vs 32; ActionSA 12 vs 22; MKP 9 vs 16; SACP 7 vs 13; AIC 6 vs 10; P.P 6 vs 9; ECOFORUM 5 vs 8; PAC 5 vs 11; APC 4 vs 8; UDM 4 vs 8; COPE 3 vs 7; ATM 2 vs 7; OHM 2 vs 3; LABOUR 1 vs 4; SDP 1 vs 3; ACT 0 vs 4; Mayibuye Civic Movement 0 vs 1; PCAM 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 108 times in 5 voting districts. In local elections the IEC also publishes each party's total across the ward, PR and DC 40% ballots. For these parties (by IEC party number) that total differs from the party's votes on the ballots themselves. We show each ballot's own votes. Each voting district's own page lists the IEC's figures.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
